Join us for an inside look at a Lighthouse project with August Storck KG, the makers of iconic sweets like Merci, Knoppers, RIESEN, and Lachgummi, as we explore how data and innovation are reshaping one of the world’s most beloved treats: the chocolate bar. We’ll dive into how August Storck is optimizing weight distribution using CONNECT, AVEVA Advanced Analytics, the Perfect Centerline app, and the Perfect Quality Model to achieve unprecedented precision on a production line that turns out an astounding 7.5 tons of chocolate bars every hour. Pull up a chair as we unpack the journey, the challenges, the “aha” moments, and how pairing deep confectionery expertise with advanced digital tools is setting a new standard for quality and operational excellence in the sweets industry.
